I needed some chocolate this afternoon and didn't have anything made so I thought of a cup of Hot Chocolate.....it turned out great.
1 heaping t. cocoa
1 heaping t. honey
pinch of salt
1 c. whole milk
Make a syrup with cocoa, honey, salt and a little milk. Add the rest of the milk, blend, & heat.
I had some honey sweetened whipped cream to top it off.
Why would you put SALT in it?
ReplyDeleteStrangely (and I don't know why) the salt helps draw out the flavor of the chocolate. I've tried making this with and without salt, and the version without salt has a more muted chocolate taste.
